You Know What Grinds My Gears? - Things that personally piss you off

[UnsufficentBoobage]

Any variant of "humans can only destroy", "alien visitors avoid us because we're primitive brutes", etc.

Each time some nihilistic faggot gloats about how a hypothetical scenario would cause the collapse of civilization

What annoys me is the assumption that an alien race would have zero conflict or wars at all

Well, duh, this is an atheistic doomer version of "rage of the gods", except, like anything in their version, it makes no sense and is extremely homosexual.

 

[AnOminous]

What annoys me is the assumption that an alien race would have zero conflict or wars at all. You just know they're out there in the cosmos having cool space battles.

Ayyliens are likely just as shitty as we are. Just look at it from a Bayesian perspective. It's likely we're about average as sapient species go, even if we're the only sample.

I suppose it's possible our first encounter is a really awesome nearly saintly sapient species, but more likely it's just something like us, or an incredible piece of shit species we'd be well advised to wipe out.

Sports fans are like really stupid autists and it makes talking about them not fun. I swear some of them actually think the 4th overall pick is more valuable than the 3rd overall pick.

Well, duh, 4 is bigger than 3, makes it automatically better.

I hate when I submit my resume to an employer's website, and then they want me to add everything in the resume again separately in different text boxes.

I've found of the most common job application sites, Workday is the worst about this.

 

[Dysnomia]

That's another thing I noticed. When white people murder somebody, it's elaborate. When black people kill somebody, it's over some dumb shit or impulse. I guess they like drama from those shows. They're overdramatized anyway.


Ghetto people LOVE to act uppity without looking at a mirror. What else could they do?

It really is true about the ghetto. I get that you don't want your block to look like something out of Robocop. But screaming at neighbors over stupid things just causes animosity. And they all have cameras. There's this nasty African lady that says she watches her camera all day. Get a life. Again it was about the dog and wasn't us anyway. So we no longer walk him in that direction. He's too old to go far anyway so I try to keep him right out front. The cameras are good if a crime occurs. But everyone is watching everybody around here. It's like 1984.

I feel like women aren't allowed to be introverts and I have to put on this mask just to exist. The mask is slipping because it was never meant to be there in the first place. I'm so tired of pretending to be extroverted for other people's comfort.

 

[WhatInTheActualFuck]

The Indian (dot) accent and the completely fucked nonsense they practice as "English". Fuck me sideways, that shit is either completely impenetrable or knockdown drag out hilarious. Combine it with their social dumbassery and it makes me want to take a flamethrower to whoever it is that greenlights this H1B bullshit.

 

[Kiwi Lime Pie]

I refuse to pick up the phone for unknown numbers or private numbers. I just don't tolerate it in my life. Got me in trouble with my doctor since they changed numbers and couldn't get in contact with me lol.

What's frustrating is when certain professions with strict privacy laws use generically-identified numbers and can't or won't leave messages because it would be deemed a breach of privacy to do so. If I get a call from an unfamiliar number and there's no message, I'm going to assume it's not legitimate.

Thread tax: People who don't bother to confirm starting times or event locations resulting in other people arriving at the wrong site or time through no fault of their own.

I'm sad for all thse kids that neither parent thought to teach them to tie their shoes or behave as though they weren't raised in a barn.

It honestly blows my mind, because a lot of these people often complain that their parents didn't teach them stuff they should have and relied too much on public school to teach them certain things.

But now like...they can't even be bothered to teach their kids how to tie their shoes? Not to run straight through people throwing things?

It makes me think if these kids weren't so addicted to their screens they'd probably be running across the street without looking both ways and getting hit.

Give it time.

 

[The Foxtrot]

It makes me think if these kids weren't so addicted to their screens they'd probably be running across the street without looking both ways and getting hit.

Give it time.

I've personally seen that happen twice. The only thing that saved the kid was someone grabbing them by the back of their shirt and pulling them back right in time.

 

[The Last Stand]

The humidity makes it so warm, you wake up SWEATING. I was going to say moist, but that would be dirty.

 

[ToroidalBoat]

Got a packet of chow mein, and there's like only 1/4th of the dehydrated vegetables as before.

It's that "shrinkflation" BS again, isn't it?

"alien visitors avoid us because we're primitive brutes"

Whether or not any aliens are flawed, this world is very flawed, especially since 2020. But it's not a pure hell: there's still good.

 

[Electric Mortar & Pestle]

GET OFF YOUR FUCKING PHONE WHILE YOU DRIVE!
I miss LONG ASS TRAFFIC lights because it takes four people 30 seconds to realize the light turned green. Fuck you.

 

[Friendly Primarina]

More of a minor annoyance really. When people type (TM) or instead of the Unicode Character™ (hex code 0x2122). "Twenty-one, twenty-two" is the easiest thing to remember. You probably memorized it just reading the last sentence.

 

[QE65]

Managers who write at length about a task, rather than just telling you what it is directly.

No. I don't want to read 10 paragraphs about why I should do this task and why it's good for the company. I just want to know what the task is.

 

[Rololowlo]

It bothers me when wikipedia has separate pages for foreign words when it's virtually the same thing. It's especially true for food, because apparently the most mundane food item needs its own article to tell you how it's called in Poland or Spain or whatever.

How it reads to me:

"In Spain, a puerta is a movable barrier that a user may open or close to get in and out of a room."
"So it's a fucking door."
"Well no because you see there are cultural nuances where..."

For fuck's sake. A door is a door, and mashed potatoes are mashed potatoes even if you know a pretentious foreign bitch-ass faggot name for it.

 

[anustart76]

When my fucking antiperspirant fails and I have sweat rolling down my sides while I'm trying to carry a heavy object.

 

[The Feline Solution]

there are retards still associating spook as a slur. Bitch you're not from the fucking 40s you're a fucking egotistical zoomer/millennial. It's even worse when they use that to crybully dumbass online creators who should know better.
Dipshits think they're "improving the world" but no they're deliberately making more people racist with this shit and maybe they know that and want racism to continue so that they can crybully grift to excuse their pathetic existence.


Also when youngsters go "our generation is so cooked fr!" As if they aren't as fucked as their generational brethren or that every generation has their flaws but whatever.

Just posted a couple of days ago how both spook and spade are some of my favourite slurs in the english language. Spook is top shelf racism and i will do my damndest to keep it that way.

When shit is a video for no reason. So many times it would be easier, more convenient and less effort to make something just in text, but retards go and make it a video. I've seen things that are 3 steps that could easily be just a dot points list instead made into a 5 minute video.

This bothers me beyond believe. No matter the topic, i will always prefer to read, niggers making 1:30 hour videos on the most minute of topics are simply not respecting my time. I still scroll down to the video description in the faint hope of finding a link to a written article but no dice in 99 of 100 cases.

 

[xXx: State of the Union]

People in their 30's who are starting parties at 9 at night.

N-word, I don't have all day to wait for your lame ass party where all you're going to do is argue with your wife to start.
